[gmx-users] different energies with different GROMACS versions

Dear all, I performed simple simulations of TIP4P-Ew water for 500 ps with three different GROMACS versions, namly 3.2.1, 3.3.1 and 4.0.2. There are 1000 molecules in the box and the temperature was 303 K at 1 bar. When I compare the total energies of the three equilibrated simulations I get:

Hi haziz...@razi.tums.ac.ir, I think it's better to only use PRODRG for the pyridoxal phosphate part. Then you can process the rest of the protein as usual, preserving the parameters for lysine backbone and side chain. The PLP part you can renumber and merge with the protein topology, adding

Well the bilayer drifts down in the z-direction, and eventually the leaflets almost separate, with each leaflet being on opposite ends of the box. if i try pbc nojump, the lipids drift far away from the box in the xy plane On Fri, Jul 3, 2009 at 12:00 PM, gmx-users-requ...@gromacs.org wrote:

This sounds pretty bad! You have a drift of your all system apparently ... Did you not remove the COM of your system? For membranes it is often recommended to remove the water and the lipid bilayer separately. The might drift one from the other. On Jul 3, 2009, at 12:19 PM, maria goranovic

I remember having a similar issue a long time ago. If I remember correctly, the culprit was a bad parametrization of the Langevin piston. Maybe you should specified how the pressure is controlled, as well as how you managed the center of mass motions in you dynamics. Nicolas Well the bilayer
